Adriana’s studies focused the biodiversity of actiniarians from shallow water of Mar del Plata and another zones of the continental shelf of Argentina. She knew the sea anemones diversity and also investigated the reproductive biology of them. Lately she was studying the sea anemones fauna from Costa Rica and the possible links with the Argentinean fauna.

Beyond research, Adriana served as chief of practical work of coelenterate biology classes at the University of Mar del Plata, encouraging some students to choose an aspect of coelenterate biology to begin their researches.

Adriana had a jovial character and she never loose hope. For all this reason we will miss her.
